Retreating question

@The_Good_Captain The rule applies in all sea battles where there are sea units allied to the attacker present, regardless of the type(s) of defending German sea units. The rule mentions only German subs because the author failed to take into account the possibility that the situation could also exist with German surface units if they were mobilized in a hostile sea zone. This oversight was corrected in the Axis & Allies Pacific Rulebook.

No reason to apologize Krieghund, I appreciate the correction.

To think i’ve been playing it wrong all these years  :-P

add this to house rules maybe? i would if the russians in a group can take germns/hold the line then make germans better blitz capitals shouldnt b blitz though!

I’m probably too late, but I also just purchased A&A Europe and found it was missing pieces.  Go to www.wizards.com and you might have to register first which is free of course, then click on help then search: missing pieces and you’ll see Axis & Allies:Europe missing pieces.  Send them an email and let them know what’s going on and they’ll send you the missing pieces at no charge.

I asked this on the A&A revised forum, but was reminded that that version doesn’t quite work the same way as A&AE works, so hopefully someone here can help me understand this better.

I was always under the impression that, as the defending player, your fighters take no part in a SBR unless the attacker sends his fighters as escorts for his bombers. If that is so, what is the attacker’s incentive to send his fighters along in the first place? It would seem to me that doing so would only serve to put his bombers at risk. We’ve played under this impression since Europe first came out….are we totally missing something?  :?

First off,Germany needs to take just one capital to win the game(Moscow,Great Britain,or the U.S.).I personally try to take all three capitals if I have the time or luck.This is a very difficult task to say the least.

I believe the answer to both questions is “yes”. It’s kind of like a tank “blitzing” through 2 territories. Naturally if there is an enemy unit in said territory, you’re staying put, my friend.

@Anonymous:

also to note, if you attack a territory and win, u may NOT move there on non-combat. remember, all combat, non-combat, unit development, and the rest occur at the same time. so u cant land a plane in a place where there is a battle taking place.

for some reason i thought this was only true for aircraft (i.e. runways take a turn to build . . . ).
